Everyday is agony without you here  / JoAnn Baker (Mom)
Kevin, there are no words to describe the anguish that I feel every single day.  I feel as if my life no longer has the meaning it once had.  I am always on the verge of a breakdown and mostly I wish I could run away, but there is no escape from this pain and this hole in my heart.  What if.....and if only.....are daily thoughts that run through my head.  Some days it's only the gravitational pull that keeps my feet on this earth.  I love you my son....and miss you more than words can say. 
do you believe  / JoAnn Baker (Mom)
Hi Jo just wanted to let you know that some strange things have been happening
here with me and it seems like it's  all happening from Kev. How his picture got
on top of my desk and fell in my lap was shocking and It's like I could just
feel him. Then it happen again but in a diferent room the other day .  I
felt as if it was truly him. Just though I would share with you my honest
touching moments I have had with Kev in the past week and 1/2.  I love the tat
you got. Keep in touch and guess what.....when I read your post about asking Kev
for a sign " I aint kidding" I instantly was brushed with something "Tell Mom it
will be by the mailbox" and I knew It was going to be a penny and what do you
know ...i read your post after I lit a candle and you said "thanks for the
Penny"  all this has got me touched very deeply and I just wanted to share this
amazing love with you.
I Love you Jo,
Donna Morgan

I received the above in an email from Donna, and I felt I had to post it here on Kevin's site.  Donna and I don't know why he chose her...but he did.  Maybe she's more receptive or connected....either way I"m grateful he chose her.  Kevin was like a son to Donna while he was growing up...we lived 3 houses away from each other.  I believe......do you
Life is not fair  / JoAnn Baker (Mom)
I went to see you after work yesterday and I took pics of the Easter bunny I left for you.  Lately I feel like it's just not fair, it's not fair that you're gone, it's not fair I didn't get to say Goodbye, it's not fair I don't get to hug and kiss you anymore.  There are way too many "not fairs".  I'm trying my best, but sometimes it's just not enough.  I love you Kevin, and miss you even more!
"Penny" from heaven  / JoAnn (Mom) Baker (Mom)
Kevin,
Thank you for the penny yesterday at my mailbox.  It's been a sad week for me and I so needed to feel you near me.  I'll try to remember to slow down so I can see the signs you leave for me.  
I love you and miss you even more!!

I'll Lend You A Child  / Marilyn Barnes (Mom to Rachel )

I'll Lend You A Child

by Edgar Guest

"I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine,"  He said.
For you to love - while he lives
And mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years
Or twenty-two or three,
But will you, till I call him back,
Take care or him for Me?
He'll bring his smiles to gladden you,
And should this stay be brief
You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn.
I've looked this world over
In search for teachers true,
And from the throngs that crowd
Life's lanes, I have selected you.
Now will you give him all your love,
Nor count the labor vain,
Nor hate Me when I come to call to
Take him back again?"
I fancied that I heard then say,
"Dear Lord, Thy will be done,
For all the joy Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him
Much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that come
And try to understand."

I am so glad that our angels put us together ...do you know that before Diane passed she told me that she would send somone to be my freind that would understand me as she did ??? I do belive you are hand picked by her ...I belive that her and Kev found eachother to take care of Their Pitas !!! I usto not belive in angels ...can you belive that ?

Missing my Brother  / Jeffrey Baker (Brother)
I never thought I would feel the pain of losing someone I love. You know the saying, "you don't know what you got till it's gone" couldn't be more true. Kevin was wonderful, caring person who would do anything for anyone, even strangers. I believe that is why he was loved by so many people. I had a dream about a week ago, I was able to hug my brother for the first time in ten months, so for now I'm just holding on to that feeling. Please keep Kevin in your hearts and help his memory live on.

I LOVE YOU BRO, AND I MISS YOU Close

Missing you!  / JoAnn Baker (Mom)
Kevin,
Today seems so very hard, the tears flow, and my heart aches.  My thoughts are scattered in so many different directions, and all directions lead to you.  The grief I feel is all-consuming today.   I feel like I need to go somewhere or do something but I'm unable to figure out where or what.  If you could give me some help, come see me in a dream.......whisper in my ear like a gentle breeze,  leave a penny for me.....I'd sure appreciate it.
I love you my son!!!!!

There's not a day, hour, minute, or second that goes by that I don't miss you.  I hear people say that it will get easier but it sure doesn't seem that way to me.

Kev 
Hello Angel Friend ...How I hope that you and Diane are flying and playing up in heaven ...It just warms my heart when I think of you and Diane and the way that you both brought your MOm and I toghter through our grief ...It is also a gift from you that I get to see the signs that you try and get to me ...like the windchime and the two butterflys at the Race Track this last weekend ...you and Diane just reaffirm my beliefe in Angels ...for how could you not ...I would have to be blind not to see all of the signs that you and Diane leave or have for me to see ...some may even say that I am crazy (they are right ...ask Lady Di) but it dosnt matter it is my belief and it helps me cope with the days with out Diane here and I am sure that it helps your Mom as well ...
Kev I just wanted you to knwo that Mom has a box that just pertains to you ...I have alot of other stuff I am working on for your MOm but had to get your stuff to you ...that windchime just has to be hung with your Moms ..cause that is the way that you and Diane show most of your signs to me
Kev I know I didnt get to meet you but I truly feel as if I know you through your Mom and I am glad that the gift of freindship /love/sisterhood has devolped with your Mom I call it a Blessing From Two Special Angels
With that I am going to send lots of love and hugs up to you in heaven and tell you to listen as the wind blows for soon you will here the music of our love out here in Kansas for you
I promiss that I will be here for your Mom and help her as much as I can but to be honest Kev I think Mom helps me more then her ...I knwo she makes this path that I am on in life alot more bearable
Lots Of Love

I am here to tell you that you writing about Kev will also be helpful to you in more ways then one ...no one understands until they walk the same raod that we do ...dont ever think your not doing things right or someone elses way ...these are your feelings ...Kev is your son ....
I have to tell you somthing ...when you told me that you got them Buttertfly Chimes and it was one of Kevs signs to you and you were going to take the chime and hang it on the tree by his grave I thought then ...Man I wish I could find a cool somthing that when the chime would chime that Kev would know that it is Ed and I that are thinking of him ...then I thought no more about it ....
I went swhopping today and I was looking around for outdoors stuff garden stuff SonFlower Stuff and I saw this glint of green flash ...I decided to see what it was and started digging through the shelf ...and on the back of the shelf was this Butterfly windchime ...humm Kev and Diane busy while I am shopping I would say :) anyways I pick up two for there are two angels that are busy at work ....
I love telling you of the storys and signs ...now my friend Kev has a Awsome Butterfly Wind Chime that he will know is from Ed and I ....
It is just amazing how life twist and turns and what life and god along with angels brings to us aint it
This got kinda long but it seems that when you and I talk about our angels I get long winded
Ed and I will get your box out to you really soon so that Kev can have his windchime there with him
Jo - you keep keeping on and know that no matter what when no one seems to understnd I truly do and I love talking with you about it
Now that I wrote a book I am going to wish you and Angel Kev a good night ...My life is so much better with you both in it
Lots Of Hugs And Love Sent Your Way

Joanne,
I'm so sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. You've created a beautiful memorial page for him. I lit a candle for him today also.
Kevin is a very handsome young man.

Love to you,
